Surgical slave reads for Ruby on Rails, mulitple databases.
- by Daniel
Greetings,
I'm currently working on a multiple database rails application.
I want to off load the SELECT queries on to the slave databases
for only SOME of the databases or specific models.
The issue is that in places, we swap out the current database
connection and put in a different one for a short time; to load fixtures or
to handle sharding.
Does anyone have any recommendations on a ruby gem that
1. will split select/(sql writes) with a considerable amount of control.
We want to handle just some models and we are looking for a neat surgical fix.
2. does not monkey around with activerecord.
3. is still being maintained.
TIA
